Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 05/04/2016

A huge sink, which is clogged by an even huger pile of sand and drift wood but obviously indicates an underground drainage system. SITUATION: About a kilometre in a direct line west of Thangskai (25°11'40”N: 92°22'30”E) and in the area between the village and what had been in February 1999 a coal miners' shanty dwelling (22°11'50”N: 92°21'05”E) at the edge of an extensive "bri soh kophi" (coffee plantation). CAVE POTENTIAL: Looks like taking a substantial flow in due time. Said to have been gaping wide open once upon a time. Perhaps accessible via the –>Coffee Cave.
